A TILT is a box shape steel structure specially designed for transporting goods and products.The standard dimensions allow intermodal transportation (such as ship, truck and rail) without the need to intermediate reloading. Containerized WWTP's are commonly employed in remote communities, industrial and constructions sites, work camps and any facility without access to major and WWTPs. Despite the satisfactory performance, these products are dealing with some issues. The main problem is the very high cost of manufacturing containerized units. In addition, these products are constructed as horizontal units which results in limited height and consequently limited treatment capacity. An alternative idea is to employ the standard TILT containers in a vertical fashion. There are many advantages that could be gained such as significantly lower cost by needing less units compared to other horizontal containerized units; lower site preparation cost; higher capacity due to vertical installation; and due to the international standard sizes, they could be easily transported using various modes of transportation (such as truck) which is of high importance in remote areas. The TILT containers can be used in wastewater as liquid storage/equalization, bioreactor/aeration tank, anaerobic reactor, moving bed bioreactor, CFIC, sequencing batch reactor, MBR plant aeration tank, bio-trickling filter and tertiary filter. The objective of the proposed R& D project is to evaluate the liquid shipping containers, TILT for wastewater treatment facility applications. Many issues such as stability leaking, local buckling and global collapse may occur when the liquid filled TILT container is subjected to seismic, wind and hydrostatic loads. An extensive numerical program is proposed to evaluate the structural properties of TILT containers and evaluate the possibility of developing a strengthening scheme which transforms the TILT container into a containerized liquid storage vessel for waste treatment process.

倾斜是一种专门设计用于运输货物和产品的盒形钢结构。标准尺寸允许无需中间重新加载的模式运输（例如船，卡车和铁路）。容器化的WWTP通常在偏远社区，工业和建筑工地，工作营和任何设施中使用，而无需进入专业和WWTP。尽管性能令人满意，但这些产品仍在处理一些问题。主要的问题是制造容器设备的成本很高。此外，这些产品被构造为水平单元，从而导致高度有限，因此治疗能力有限。另一种想法是以垂直方式使用标准的倾斜容器。与其他水平集装箱单位相比，需要更少的单位，可以获得许多优势，例如成本明显降低；较低的现场准备成本；由于垂直安装而导致的容量更高；由于国际标准尺寸，可以使用各种运输方式（例如卡车）轻松运输它们，这在偏远地区非常重要。倾斜容器可用于废水中，作为液体储存/均衡，生物反应器/曝气箱，厌氧反应器，移动的床生物反应器，CFIC，测序批处理反应堆，MBR植物曝气罐，生物磨刀滤清器和第三端过滤器。拟议的研发项目的目的是评估液体运输容器，用于废水处理设施的倾斜度。许多问题，例如稳定性泄漏， 当液体填充的倾斜容器承受地震，风和静水载荷时，可能会发生局部屈曲和全球崩溃。提出了一项广泛的数值程序来评估倾斜容器的结构特性，并评估开发加强方案的可能性，该方案将倾斜容器转换为容器化的液体存储容器进行废物处理过程。
